Tax Free Retirement Income Using OPM

For business owners and other high-net-worth investors, IULs offer particularly strong advantages, including the flexibility to invest in index funds with guaranteed asset protection and no management fees. Fixed-rate ULs remain a strong option for highly conservative affluent investors seeking a higher fixed rate of return. For those clients whom you believe would benefit from overfunding permanent life insurance as a component of their overall wealth management plan, the following discussion points may help you clarify the value:

ax-favored growth: Tax rates on investment portfolios continue to rise, making income-tax-deferred investment options a critical component of retirement planning. Returns on permanent life policies grow untaxed—when properly structured, they may be accessed untaxed, provide an income-tax-free death benefit, and/or continue to grow tax-deferred until funds are drawn (prior to death).

Specialized Tax Incentives R&D Tax Credits

All businesses engaged in domestic manufacturing and production activities qualify for IRC § 199 Domestic Production Activities Deduction benefit. Traditional manufacturers qualify but the rules have broadened the traditional definition of manufacturing to also include companies such as Qualifying production property which was manufactured, produced, grown, or extracted by the taxpayer in whole or in significant part within the United States, Construction firms for construction performed in the United States, Engineering and architectural firms for services performed in the United States for construction projects in the United States, and Electricity, natural gas, and potable water producers for U.S. production.

Profitable companies participating in these industries may be entitled to the generous tax and cash benefits provided by this incentive.

Cost Segregation & Much Much More

Depreciation recapture is an often misunderstood aspect of tax planning and comes into effect only during the sale of a property. Recapture is limited to the lesser of the gain or the depreciation taken. Meaning, first you have to sell the property and have a gain on the sale to even be concerned.

To have a loss, one would have to sell the property for less than its net tax value. For practical purposes, the depreciation taken is the main limiting factor because the IRS calculates gain as the selling price less the net tax value (cost less depreciation taken). The recapture rules dictate how the gain is taxed, with § 1245 governing personal property and § 1250 governing real property. Section 1245 dictates that the accelerated depreciation taken on personal and real property be taxed at ordinary income tax rates. Section 1250 requires that depreciation taken on real property be taxed at a 25% capital gains rate.

BOLI

What is BOLI - Bank Owned Life Insurance. Put simply, BOLI is attractive to the banks because it can produce better returns that the banks couldn't otherwise achieve. Since the growth in the cash value of the insurance policies is tax-free, and returns are further magnified by this benefit. For example, a bank might expect a BOLI policy to appreciate in value at 3.25% to 3.5% per year. However, since this is a tax-free gain, this is really equivalent to a taxable investment gain of 5% or more. And, anyone who has any idea what kind of interest shorter-term fixed income investments pay right now knows that this type of gain would be difficult for banks to safely achieve elsewhere. According to a 2013 review of FDIC data, 53.4% of U.S. banks held some type of BOLI assets. Cash surrender value of BOLI policies held by banks stood at $164.5 billion as of June 30, 2017, reflecting a 3.5 percent increase from $159 billion as of June 30, 2016. $167.8 billion of BOLI cash value now on bank’s financials as of 12/31/17. Further, the percentage of banks holding BOLI assets increased in that time period, from 61.3 percent to 62.8 percent, approximately 3,570 banks. In 2016, the aggregate face amount of all life insurance policies in force amounted to approximately 20.33 trillion U.S. dollars in the United States.
